Welcome to The Daily Ascent. I'm Molly Carmel — and this is the podcast I always wished existed: a bite-sized, on-the-ground spiritual note that can shift your thinking and your outlook on life. Because sometimes, that's all it takes — a small shift in what we choose to believe — to make the day a little better, and to make us a little more awake, alive… and ascending.Each weekday, we climb together — rising above the noise, finding the flow, and getting grounded in what really matters so you can live your day with more meaning, connection, and ease.

A woman said a sentence to me on a call last week, and it's the one I hear more than any other: "I think I can probably do this myself." She'd spent decades and a fortune trying to fix her relationship with food alone. A
The world was feeling heavy. My nervous system was doing what nervous systems do. And then I looked out the window and saw Danny, flat on his back in the yard, sunbathing like it was his full-time job.Something shifted.
I'm staying with friends whose older dog resource guards. We kept the food and toys put away, and he was still growling at my dog over nothing. So I read about it late into the night and learned there's a third thing dog
I spent five days with my godkids, which I love. And I came home steady, present, and not crashed. That had never happened before. The difference? I included myself in the circle of care before I left. This episode is ab
I hadn't been on a date in seven months, and those were good months. I wasn't hiding, I just wasn't called to it. Then, packing for a few weeks in the mountains, a quiet thought arrived: maybe I could date a little there
For years I've told the same story about the three years I lived in Charlotte. Beautiful chapter, met my spiritual advisor, never really made friends, easy to leave. Then last weekend I went back and walked into the wome
This one is personal. I've struggled with eating disorders my whole life, and for a long time, my body and I were not friends. A hip injury, a treadmill class, and a moment of choosing to stop instead of push through tau
My teacher said something at the end of the retreat that knocked me sideways. What I wasn't expecting was what came out of me when it did. This episode is about the last day in Lourdes, a hard conversation, and the momen
I was watching Shrinking when Harrison Ford's character stopped me cold. One line. I paused the show and said out loud: that's the episode. If you're spinning on a decision right now, going back and forth until you've ex
My social media coach kept saying she couldn't guarantee results. After the third time, I stopped her and said she never had to say that to me again. What I told her next surprised even me — and it's what today's episode
At a spiritual retreat this week, someone asked my teacher if she believed in the power of prayer. She didn't answer. She turned the question around: do you believe in the power of an angry mob? Because if collective neg
I was on a spiritual retreat in Lourdes when a woman in my small group started doing unsolicited therapy on me. She was kind. She was well-meaning. And it took me ten minutes in a full fawn response before I could finall
This one is a crowd favorite, and it might ruffle some feathers. I'm taking a hard look at one of the most overused phrases in spirituality, "everything happens for a reason," and asking whether we're actually using it t
My friend threw me a welcome party when I moved to Connecticut. It was Labor Day weekend, and genuinely thought nobody would come. Twenty-seven women showed up — twenty-five of them complete strangers — and went around a
This one is a crowd favorite, and honestly, I think you'll see why. My goddaughter was 15. One dinner-table moment and I was catapulted straight out of adulthood and right back into my teenage self. A Celtic prayer helpe
A client of mine had a really hard year. When she told me she was heading out on a hiking trip to celebrate making it through, I told her to give it to the mountains. She came back transformed. Today's episode is about w
I went to Lourdes with a plan. I was going to do the bathing ritual. I was going to get dunked in the sacred water and it was going to be transcendent. And then I looked around at the line I was standing in and heard som
When I arrived in Lourdes for an eight-day spiritual retreat, my first thought was: I made a terrible mistake. This happens to me every single time I go on a spiritual retreat. What happened next — a voice memo to a frie
A coaching client said something to me recently that I have heard a hundred times in a hundred rooms, and I finally want to say out loud what it actually means. "I'll try my best" sounds like effort. It sounds like earne
I used to tell myself I was going to put away the laundry before I went to sleep. And I knew, even as I was saying it, that I wasn't going to. That small comfortable story — repeated in hundreds of tiny private moments —
